[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hopkins - Carnegie Mellon - U of Rochester - Case Western are all, to me, similar schools, even down to their tech/business + arts focuss. They are wonderful schools for serious students.

For a lab interested in business, I would look at Michigan, Wisconsin, NYU, Northwestern and Indiana.  [/quote]

Could anyone in this thread compare and contrast Case Western with Rice and Wash. U.? [/quote]

I can’t but I can tell you that the kids I know who apply to CWRU always apply to Rice and Wash U, too. The only one I know who chose one of the latter two over CWRU went to Wash U with a way bigger aid package. They liked the kids at Case better but had 4 other siblings so they had to chase aid.

Rice was a big deal for a while and I love the neighborhood around the campus, but it fell out of favor in our high school and neighborhood circles. I couldn’t tell you why. [/quote]

Thanks. Would you happen to know how CWRU is for humanities and social sciences? When I look on Niche, it seems not that competitive for humanities and social sciences. If that’s true, and is fine in those fields, maybe it’s a great near safety for humanities and social sciences students. [/quote]

There are some programs that have very few majors and of those they are often also majoring in something else.  So depending on what your DC is interested in, it is important to ask about how many majors, how much support, when courses are offered.  This is a good strategy for any college really--but especially the more tech focused schools.  They may not really have any career support for the particular major if 75% are majoring in CS + particular social science/humanity major.[/quote]
